Pretty sure you have no idea what you're talking about. It's a Bugatti Veyron.

The owner is in trouble. He claimed a low flying bird distracted him. I didn't see any birds in the video.

Looks like he just drove right off the road. I'll bet a soggy Veyron that he was texting. He is actualy probably lucky their wasn't anything to hit. Getting wet is better than nailing a tree or parked car.

The problem with wrecking a car like that is you stupid move gets you your 15 minutes of fame. That video is going to be on Youtube forever.

I did not see any bird either. He screwed up. I do not know what it is like to have $1.6 million to blow on a "Lambo" but I am pretty sure dumping it ina lagoon has got to hurt. Especially since it's not like you can go down to your local "Lambo" store and pick up another one. I would not be surprised if "Lambo" told him "nah, don't think so. You're to stupid to own a "Lambo". May be you should consider buying a Bugatti. Perhaps that is more your style."

What a dumb ass.
